CareerRe: 4 Reasons You Should Start A Side Hustle As A Working Class Nigerian by rentAcock(m): 8:44pm On May 16, 2018
SoapQueen:
Only people with "fat" salaries can say this. You would see many people trying to keep their heads above water. End of the month, salaries get paid, they shell out a few thousands here and there. Next thing, you see them trying to come up for air again.

In my own opinion, people who work 9-5 are those of are scared of taking risks.

How many Nigerians earn more than 150k monthly, from white collar jobs?

Lastly, you have a point. If everyone delves into business, who would be the employee?
You don't need to have a fat salary to agree that regular jobs provide you regular income. I never said regular jobs provide you with a fat pay check. The OP is wrong to say that people with side hustles never go broke or become their own boss, that's flat out wrong. Over 85% of start-ups never survive, they simply go out of business. Everyone thinks it's easy running a business until they've invested all their life savings only to run into huge losses.

And you are very wrong to say people who work 9-5 are scared to take risks, sometimes not doing anything might be the best course of action. Maybe they know they lack the discipline to run their own business. Maybe they've realized that running a business is far more time consuming for the income it generates? Or maybe they just don't want to go bankrupt in an attempt to strike gold. Everything in life is about taking a calculated risk, all these guys online telling people to be their own boss just aren't being honest with themselves and make it seem like it's very easy and possible for everyone

If you will never go broke and you became your own boss, everyone would quit their regular jobs and focus on the side hustle. Regular jobs provide a regular stream of income, side hustle is unpredictable.

So I decided to contact this fella for the unlock.
And I asked if I could visit his office because I wanted to refer other people to him and it would only make sense for me to say I have met the person I am referring them to and I trust him.
Oga proceeded to insult me.
In the space of 5 minutes. Lol

Abeg where did I offend this man? Lol
You are annoying and he never insulted you first. In as much as you are trying not to get scammed, you were just looking for trouble and baiting the guy. He was surprised that you would prefer to meet him in person because nobody has ever asked to meet him in person but he still proceeded to tell you to come to his office the next day and you just kept on rambling and talking crap.

Obviously you know nothing about medicine. Not all cough drugs can put a child to sleep. The ones that do should be prescribed because of parents like you.

Since you asked politely, I am the type of parent that does not need to resort to the abusively clueless and escapist 'parenting' style of using harmful drugs to make my children behave. What would you do to your children when they are bigger, and still have not been taught about proper public behaviour? Put them on heroin?

Try talking to your children instead, and give them tasks to do suitable for their ages. Read or tell stories to the younger ones, or play mind games. There are dozens of things that a parent can do to keep their kids intelligently engaged, instead of dumbing them down with drugs and keeping them in a permanent stupor.
You are obviously a dullard, ALL cough syrups have some form of codiene, morphine, antihistamine and opiod. These agents work by suppressing efferent motor signals from being sent to your lungs for trachea contraction (cough). Their side effect is drowsiness hence the reason people feel sleepy after taking cough syrup. Adult doses obviously will contain higher doses of codeine, histamine or opiods, but all cough medications contain some amount of these chemicals, that's how they suppress cough!! You obviously lack knowledge in pharmacology, maybe next time do some research before making a fool of yourself online.

If you like obtain double majors from Oxford university, then obtain a master's degree from Harvard and a Doctorate degree from Cambirdge, it still wouldn't land you the highest paying job in Nigeria. The highest paid individuals in Nigeria are politicians.

More parents need to drug their children? All the more reason why enforcing drug prescription before sale has become imperative.
Call it drugging all you want and no amount of prescription enforcement will prevent it from happening. Children get cold and cough regularly so a cough syrup will always be readily available in any home with kids, prescription enforcement or not . You sound like the type of parent that will let your kids cry uncontrollably in a plane.

Is that what you do?
Giving them drugs to make them sleep is a very bad idea.
That's what more parents need to do, it's nobody's fault if you cannot control your child.

Drugging a child just for your own comfort?! No loving parent does this!
It's not drugging. Nobody likes an insolent child crying relentlessly in a full plane either. If you cannot control your children, do everyone a favor and put them to sleep.

After giving them cough syrup to quiet them, do not complain when they grow up and become tramadol champions. SMH shocked
They won't get addicted, you only give it to little unruly kids and only when you are traveling by air. That's maybe once a year at most, and you only do so until they are over 4 or 5 years.
TravelRe: Mistakes Parents Make When Traveling With Kids by rentAcock(m): 1:13pm On Mar 14, 2018
Also, if you are flying with little children, try to keep them quiet. Sometimes giving them cough syrup right before takeoff would help keep them to sleep until arrival. Nobody likes a crying child.

The guy you sent the bitcoin to " ayibaba " has disabled his moniker already.

He has sold the bitcoin. He is just a low life idiot.
This is reason why people are always scared to help.

Any opportunity they get they will run away with your money.

Can you drop here the wallet he sent the 0.1 btc to so may be I can trace it.

Sorry about this.
Here's the wallet ID he sent the 0.1 bitcoin to

392LK4ZQD3gixWg5xJRTv1a24N3YDgCbwP

That wallet currently has 19.299 bitcoins in it. Based on the frequency and volume of transactions, it's most likely the wallet of an exchanger.

Take heart at RentAcock.... In as much as we feel pity for you, I will look at it from another angle, This is what Unnecessary show off causes you. Doz people on the football page never begged you for money but you decided to form Baba Olowo, U predicted a score which didn't go as plan u wan use OBO status cover up den comes d unnecessary show off. Not trying to judge but I guess dey re people genuinely, who u may hv come in contact with or saw dia pleas one way or d other for assistance but u turned a blind eye both in Facetime and Cyber. UNNECESSARY show off that doesn't add anything to your life is total crap, If u wan show off atleast do it wer big men/ladies are nd one way or d other dey will try to mingle wit u, den before u know it u guyz bcum bizness partners. Showing off on A faceless forum is not worth it, Atleast if u showing off on a faceless platform let it be dt u re assisting the less privilege... D intelligent one's will get my Stand point
It isn't unnecessary show off. At first it was a joke, I didn't really think they would win that match but then when they won, I was super excited. You sound really bitter, this wasn't a philanthropic act of kindness where you only give someone something because they need it or asked for it. It was meant to be fun, I had those coins and said I will give it out, I didn't lose anything, what sucks is the fact that someone else will turn an act of kindness to one that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. It was meant to be fun, it was meant to make people feel like they could come on nairaland and win something free. I too would like to feel that way. It's kinda the same way someone would ask total strangers to drop their phone numbers so they may receive credit or whatever. It's not show off, stop being pained. And if it is show off, so be it, it's not your money

I had sent it long time ago, my screen has issues would have sent u a screenshot
On March 5th I sent you 0.1 Bitcoin instead of 0.01 Bitcoin in error and I sent it to you out of kindness because i was happy Man United won that game against crystal palace even though my exact score predictions were off by one goal. At half time, Crystal palace was up 1-0 and I predicted that Man United will still win the game 3-1 and if the game doesn't end up as predicted I would give 10 people on page 4 0.01 Bitcoin each which at the time, bitcoin was trading at over $11,000. The game ended 3-2 in Man United's favour. Before I sent the coins to you, I had already sent 0.01 to another nairalander (tjosh007) but made an error by sending you 0.1 Bitcoin instead of 0.01. Immediately after the error was discovered, I asked you to send back 0.09 once the coins have been confirmed and you said "ok" but never did and it's been 8 days now and still nothing. I couldn't post afterwards because I was banned for 1 week apparently because I was posting off topic and it seems like people were derailing the thread by asking for free bitcoin even though they weren't on page 4. On the same day I sent you the coins, your screenshot was working as you were able to send some beting pics but today it's not working anymore. My screenshot still works and I've attached screenshots of the transactions from blockchain and screenshot of my wallet showing withdrawals and deposits. Here's your wallet ID
15p59xNSXnqkgwac9jQccX6KJM6CQoY3nK

And here's my wallet ID: 1Dvy7iTpig28YvNLe8uZxVRmbjaexomFnY

Using your wallet ID, it is clear that you received 0.1 Bitcoin from me on March 5th, you later received 0.00004748 bitcoin from someone else that same day. On March 6th, you sent out 0.00004748 bitcoin to someone else and that same day you sent out 0.1 bitcoin to someone else and that was your last transaction. There is no proof in the blockchain that you sent me any coins nor did you send 0.09 Bitcoin to anyone else.

It is really shameful that you will turn an act of kindness for your own greed. I had the intent to share 0.1 Bitcoin amongst 10 people simply out of generosity and hoped that someone else will pass along such gesture to others. I didn't send you those coins because I'm rich and have nothing to do with money, it was an act of kindness and you decided to abscond with my coins out of greed and selfishness. I still have people who were on page 4 still asking me for their own cut, but unfortunately I'm unable to send any coins to them because you've refused to send back the excess you received.
